Common Applications for the OceanAire 2OAC1811
Server Rooms and IT Equipment Cooling
Server rooms, telecommunications equipment, and networking closets generate significant heat during continuous operation.
The OceanAire 2OAC1811 can provide temporary or supplemental cooling during HVAC maintenance, unexpected cooling failures, or equipment upgrades.
Its 16,800 BTU/hr capacity makes it an option for smaller equipment rooms and localized cooling applications.
Common uses include:
- Emergency cooling during HVAC failures
- Supplemental cooling for networking equipment
- Cooling during server maintenance
- Temporary cooling for telecommunications closets
- Equipment-room temperature control
Because the 2OAC1811 is air-cooled, warm condenser air must be routed away from the conditioned space to prevent heat recirculation.
Proper cooling-load calculations, electrical service, condenser exhaust management, and condensate drainage should be evaluated before installation.

Installation and Electrical Requirements
The OceanAire 2OAC1811 operates on 115V / 60Hz single-phase electrical power.
Although the unit uses 115V power, it requires a NEMA 5-20P plug connection, which is different from the standard NEMA 5-15P found on many smaller portable air conditioners.
Published electrical specifications include:
- Rated Current: 14.1 Amps
- Inrush Current: 75 Amps
- Plug Type: NEMA 5-20P
- Power Consumption: 1,670 Watts
A compatible 20-amp receptacle and properly rated electrical circuit are required.
OceanAire recommends using a dedicated circuit with suitable time-delay fuses or circuit breakers.
Customers should verify their electrical service before purchasing.
Condenser Exhaust and Ventilation
The 2OAC1811 is an air-cooled portable air conditioner.
During cooling, the unit removes heat from the conditioned space and rejects it through its condenser airflow.
For effective operation, hot condenser air must be directed away from the conditioned area.
Optional ceiling panel kits, duct adapters, and return-air plenums are available for appropriate ducting configurations.
The unit does not provide vent-free cooling.
Condensate Management
The OceanAire 2OAC1811 features a 5-gallon internal condensate tank.
Moisture collected during cooling operation accumulates in the tank, and the unit includes a condensate alert.
For applications requiring automatic condensate removal, OceanAire offers the UPK-115 universal condensate pump kit as an optional accessory.
This option can be useful for extended cooling operation and installations where manual tank emptying is inconvenient.
